It features a 1.75-inch diameter, 10-spline male end that slides into a slip yoke or companion flange, and a bearing journal (1.771-inch diameter) that supports the center hanger bearing. The shaft is designed to be welded into 3.5-inch diameter steel tubing with a 0.134-inch wall, forming part of a two-piece driveshaft assembly. This component is typically replaced when the splines, bearing surface, or tube stub become worn or damaged, or during a driveline rebuild.
